Huddersfield Town charged with misconduct following Paddy Power fake kit stunt

The Terriers' hoax home shirt has led the Football Association to take action, with the Championship side breaching "Kit and Advertising Regulations"

The Football Association (FA) has charged Huddersfield Town with misconduct after the club wore a fake kit as part of a marketing stunt in pre-season.

Huddersfield created a social media storm when they released the design for a new home shirt sporting a giant sash emblazoned with the name of betting agency Paddy Power.

The Championship club confirmed the controversial strip to be a hoax after donning it in a pre-season match against Rochdale.
